The number is WAYYYY off. It's not a 2.1 rating, it's 2.1 million people tuned in to watch and that number is off too.
Per Steve Kim's recent column.
The buzz throughout the industry is that the HBO telecast for this past weekend’s bout between De La Hoya and Forbes - which served as an infomercial for the rematch between 'the Golden Boy' and Floyd Mayweather- did a rating of 3.9. (Kevin Iole of
Yahoo!Sports is reporting 4.7)
thanks for clearing that up... i don't really understand how the ratings system works
Yeah I was going to say, but wasnt entirely sure so I didnt.
I'm pretty sure a rating point does not equal a million people.
In fact the ratings change as the years pass so comparing past numbers is different as well. It's based on the amount of households with a cable TV.

So that settles it, Floyd is officially a draw.
But no real suprise here, Forbes was a weak opponent for DLH.
how does that settle it? Floyd hasnt test his draw power with a nobody. he couldnt even pull big numbers for Wrestlemania. His fight with Hatton had a million plus LESS than with DLH. DLH/Mayorga did 100K more than Hatton/Mayweather.
Unless a profound figure comes to save it.
There could be someone young enough to do it.. that'd be great...
A scary Dominant boxer... hopefully in the heavyweight division.
